Industrial Committee plans video to promote area Plans for the production of a video tape of the village of Brussels and surrounding areas were dis­ closed last Wednesday by Keith Mulvey, newly-appointed member of the Brussels Industrial Com­ mittee, speaking at the Brussels ratepayers’ meeting held in recog­ nition of Local Government Week. The tape, which will run for 20-30 minutes, will be designed to be used in promoting the area to potential investors and light in­ dustry which may be interested in establishing in the village, Mr. possession a similar tape used in promoting Kingston, and offered to show it to anyone who was in­ terested. Mulvey said. He told those atten­ ding the meeting that he had in his “If we (the Industrial Com­ mittee) go anywhere, the first thing people says is ‘what have you got to offer,’” Mr. Mulvey explained. Entertainment Mr. Mulvey and video cam­ eraman Gerry Wheeler of Brussels will be the basis of the tape’s production crew, but both said they would welcome input and assis­ tance from anyone. They hope to be able to hire a helicopter to take aerial views of the region, and to tape short interviews with various people who have recently esta­ blished in Brussels, asking them to give their reasons for choosing to come to the community. As well, the committee will talk to people in the surrounding hamlets, such as Walton, Ethel, Cranbrook and Bel­ grave for promotion ideas. Taping is scheduled to start in early May.

Interest in the five plays being offered is evenly spread, the Fes- tival reports with ticket sales for Bordertown Cafe by Kelly Rebar slightly in the lead, closely follow­ ed by Miss Balmoral of the Bay­ view by Colleen Curran (author of such hits as Cake-Walk and Moose County). Tim Chapman, new Festival general manager is impressed with the loyalty and trust of the Blyth audience. “We’re doing four com­ pletely new plays this year, plus a repeat from 1986. This is much riskier than putting on a production that has already been a hit, say, on Broadway.” Festival patrons, how­ ever, he says, don’t wait to see the reviews of the plays before buying their tickets. Rural education aim of Women's institute The aim of education for rural women was one of the main ideas behind the establishment of The Women’s Institute 90 years ago. Although the topics covered have changed over the years the princi­ ple hasn’t. Each Women’s Institute branch organizes their own programme to suit the interest of their members. In the past year one branch has had speakers or programmes on the following: colours and scarf tying.

While the village has had a Secondary Plan for several years it has dragged its feet in taking the final step of the Zoning by-law. The village’s application for the Ontario government’s Pride grant program for village improvement, however, requires that it have a comprehen­ sive zoning by-law.

I’ve been trying for 10 years to find some way around it but haven’t found anyway around it.” he said. Still, with knowledge that the village’s application had made it through the first round of the government selection program, council approved the resolution to ask the planning department to finish the plan.
